If you’re looking for the perfect tires for urban cyclists, we present the Pirelli Angel XT Urban 700 Reflective Tire.
Designed to offer agile handling in the city, comfort, grip, and traction, this tire is also compatible with e-bikes.
Specifically designed to meet the demands of both road and light off-road terrain, the Angel™ XT Urban is the perfect choice for your daily urban adventures.
With its knobby tread pattern, inherited from the Pirelli MT60™ RS, this tire delivers agile handling on the road, comfort, grip, and traction. This is due to the different shape of the tread blocks: lower in the center for better rolling on asphalt, and higher on the sides to handle light off-road terrain.
The motorcycle-inspired profile provides superior grip when leaning into turns. The Angel™ XT Urban meets the ECE-R75 and ECE-R88 certification requirements and is suitable for both traditional and E-Bikes
TECHNOLOGIES
Casing
The HyperBELT construction is an Urban-specific solution focused on puncture protection: the 60 tpi nylon casing protects the tire against cuts, while an additional 5 mm layer of rubber offers extra protection against foreign objects such as nails and thorns.
HyperBELT is a sturdy and durable construction that handles the common obstacles of urban cycling.
Compound
PROCompound Urban is a special silica-based rubber Formula that maximizes grip and mileage—both essential characteristics for urban cycling in all weather conditions.
The Angel™ Urban line is ECE-R75 certified, meaning the tires meet specific European standards for E-Bikes capable of speeds up to 50 km/h (31 mph).
The reflective strip meets the approval requirements of European regulation ECE-R88, which stipulates that reflective strips must emit light that is sufficiently visible even at an unfavorable angle.
